The royal family has been banned from hunting on the Scottish estate near Balmoral Castle — bringing a dramatic end to their 175-year-old tradition.
Since 1852, the royals have spent time shooting, deer stalking, and fishing on the Abergeldie estate in Aberdeenshire, Scotland.
It’s a pastime that has been in the family since the Balmoral estate was purchased by Queen Victoria and Prince Albert, which subsequently granted them access to the 11,500-acre (18-square-mile) plot.
